Just stunning artwork throughout the book and such lovely words. It's a book about what possibilities a child may have now and in the future based on maybes. Maybe you'll soar or maybe you'll fail but take that risk. Just a wonderful read!

TheBookHippie One of my favourite picture books. 1w

Man and His Symbols | Carl Gustav Jung

pick

In a great example of Jung‘s “synchronicity,” I was reading this book as my partner and I began to watch Bill Moyers‘s series of interviews of Joseph Campbell in “The Power of Myth.” Both really struck a cord in emphasizing the need of truly acknowledging oneSelf (both the conscious and the unconscious, the latter thru dreams) and how a psyche well-met can point to useful parallels in the natural sciences, religion and one‘s life‘s meaning.

The Lathe Of Heaven | Ursula K. LeGuin

Wow! 🤯 It doesn‘t get much better than Le Guin, IMO. This book reminded me a little of PKD only it made sense because it was UKLG. 😜

What would you do if you knew your dreams could affect reality? Unfortunately I think most of us would try to use this to our advantage as the terrifyingly normal Dr. Haber does. Who would wish such power away like George Orr?

A great (and short) philosophical novel hidden in an entertaining SciFi story.

vivastory I think that this was my first Le Guin and it blew my mind in the way that the best SF can. Still holds a special place in my heart. 3w

Ruthiella @vivastory My first Le Guin was A Wizard of Earthsea which I didn‘t jive with. But the I read Left Hand of Darkness and was blown away. 3w

vivastory I haven't read Earthsea, but I only have 2 novels remaining in the Hainish Cycle & think it's absolutely brilliant. 3w

Reggie I have more nightmares than dreams so this would be a no go. I‘ve slept with the Antichrist, I‘ve been burned alive in a mall restroom as a white girl (I don‘t know why I was a white girl), and I‘ve seen the nuclear bomb as it hits through a window at work. lol but this review is great and intrigues me. Stacked! 3w

Ruthiella @Reggie My nightmares are usually more along the lines of a never ending house where all the rooms are unfamiliar. 😱 I hope you like this book when/if you get to it! 🤞 (edited) 3w

AnishaInkspill I really want to read this, on my tbr 3w

Ruthiella @AnishaInkspill I hope you like it when/if you get a to it. Le Guin‘s books tend to really make me think, which I appreciate. (edited) 3w

Inner Work: Using Dreams and Active Imagination for Personal Growth | Robert A. Johnson

so-so

I read this for my spiritual direction class, and came into it very skeptical—dream work has always seemed a little too woo-woo for me, to be honest. However, I came away from the book with my skepticism assuaged a bit… its idea of dream work as “peeking over the shoulder” of the unconscious drew me in and helped me move past some of my skepticism. While I don‘t see myself engaging with dreams and active imagination ⤵️

BarbaraJean (Cont‘d) …to nearly the extent as described in the book, I do feel there was some helpful context and tools to explore further. That said, this did feel incredibly dated at many points, especially in regard to gender. I needed a few grains of salt all along the way. I suppose the fact that it feels dated is somewhat fitting, since I‘m using this to complete the year 1986 for #192025! @librarybelle 3w
